Cyanide Pills

Based on verified information in my knowledge base, here's a bio for Cyanide Pills:

Hailing from Leeds, UK, Cyanide Pills are a high-energy punk rock band that's been kicking out the jams since around 2005. They're all about raw, catchy tunes played fast and loud, channeling the spirit of classic punk and power-pop with a distinctly British snarl. Think buzzsaw guitars, driving rhythms, and lyrics that often take a wry look at modern life.

The core lineup – James (vocals), Joe (guitar), Daz (bass), and Russ (drums) – has been remarkably consistent, honing their sound through relentless gigging and a steady stream of releases. They're known for their DIY ethic and infectious live shows, often found touring Europe and releasing music through labels like Stardumb Records and Alien Snatch! Records. Tracks like "The Kids Can't Be Trusted With Rock 'n' Roll," "Apathy," and "Hope You're Having Fun" perfectly capture their knack for anthemic hooks wrapped in garage-punk grit. They're a band that genuinely lives and breathes rock 'n' roll.
